自1931年以來，布里托尼亞一直是解剖學、植物學史、化學分類學、形態(tài)學、古植物學、系統(tǒng)發(fā)生系統(tǒng)學、分類學和植物地理學等原始研究論文的重要發(fā)表地。每一期都包含紐約植物園的工作人員和外部貢獻者的文章、書評和公告。

Since 1931, Brittonia, assuming the broadest possible definition of the field of systematic botany, has been an important outlet for the publication of original research articles on anatomy, botanical history, chemotaxonomy, morphology, paleobotany, phylogenetic systematics, taxonomy, and phytogeography. Each issue contains articles by the staff of The New York Botanical Garden and outside contributors, book reviews, and announcements.
